Abstract

Wireless networks have evolved to the appearance of heterogeneous wireless networks(HetNet), where various networks provide data services with various data rates and coverage. One of technical issues for HetNet is efficient utilization of radio resources for system performance enhancement. For the next generation wireless networks, energy saving has become one of key performance indices, so energy-efficient resource management schemes for HetNet need to be developed. This paper addresses an energy-efficient scheduling for HetNet in order to improve the energy efficiency while maintaining similar system throughput as existing scheme, for which an energy-efficient scheduling that energy efficiency factor is included. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves the reduction of energy consumption while admitting limited ragne of throughput degradation in comparison with the conventional proportional fair scheduling.

무선망에서 소모 전력, 전송률, 통신 반경 등 서비스 요구 사항에 따라 상호 다른 망의 발전이 진행되어 왔다. 최근 차세대 무선망 환경에서는 초고속, 초저지연, 저전력 등 서비스 요구 사항이 보다 다양해지고 높은 수준으로 설정되고 있으며, 이를 만족하기 위한 방안으로 이기종간 효과적인 연동에 대한 연구에 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이기종 무선망 환경에서 망간 연동을 통해 데이터 서비스가 이루어지는 상황에서 에너지 효율성을 반영하는 스케쥴링 기법을 제안한다. 특히 이기종 무선망 환경에서 사용자 형평성을 고려하면서 데이터 수율을 개선하는 비례균등 스케쥴링 방식을 기반으로 에너지 효율에 관한 요소를 반영하는 문제를 고려하고 에너지 효율을 개선함과 동시에 사용자 형평성, 데이터 수율을 모두 감안하는 에너지 효율적인 비례균등 스케쥴링 방식을 제안한다. 또한 모의실험을 통해 제안된 방식으로 비례균등 달성도를 유지하면서 에너지 효율이 개선됨을 보인다.
